Description
This study was conducted to determine heterogeneity of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in mammary tumors, by unsupervised analysis of single cell transcriptomes. Overall design: 768 single EpCAM-, CD45-, CD31- NG2- fibroblasts were isolated from mammary tumors of two 14 week old MMTV-PyMT mice. The cells were sequenced following the Smart-Seq2 protocol (Picelli et al. Nature Methods 2013).

Affymetrix Pseudomonas aeruginosa Array (paeg1a)
Description
In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, partitioning protein ParB facilitates segregation of newly replicated chromosomes but is not essential for cell survival. Unlike in other bacteria, inactivation of parB leads to major changes of the transcriptome, suggesting that, directly or indirectly, ParB plays a role in regulation of gene expression in this organism.
Publication Title
Increased ParB level affects expression of stress response, adaptation and virulence operons and potentiates repression of promoters adjacent to the high affinity binding sites parS3 and parS4 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Description
Activation of the MLL-ENL-ERtm oncogene initiates aberrant proliferation of myeloid progenitors. Here, we show induction of a fail-safe mechanism mediated by the DNA damage response (DDR) machinery that results in activation of the ATR/ATM-Chk1/Chk2-p53/p21 checkpoint and cellular senescence at early stages of cellular transformation caused by a regulatable MLL-ENL-ERtm in mice. Furthermore, we identified the transcription program underlying this intrinsic anti-cancer barrier, and DDR-induced inflammatory regulators that fine-tune the signaling towards senescence, thereby modulating the fate of MLL-ENL-immortalized cells in a tissue-environment-dependent manner. Our results indicate that DDR is a rate-limiting event for acquisition of stem cell-like properties in MLL-ENL-ERtm-mediated transformation, as experimental inhibition of the barrier accelerated the transition to immature cell states and acute leukemia development.

Description
Distinctions between craniofacial and axial muscles exist from the onset of development and throughout adulthood. The masticatory muscles are a specialized group of craniofacial muscles that retain embryonic fiber properties throughout adulthood, suggesting that the developmental origin of these muscles may govern a pattern of expression that differs from limb muscles. To determine the extent of these differences, expression profiling of total RNA isolated from the masseter and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles of adult female mice was performed, which identified transcriptional changes in unanticipated functional classes of genes in addition to those associated with fiber type. In particular, the masseters displayed a reduction of transcripts associated with load-sensing and anabolic processes, and heightened expression of genes associated with stress. Consistent with these observations were a significantly smaller fiber cross-sectional area in masseters, significantly elevated load-sensing signaling (phosphorylated Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK)), and increased apoptotic index in masseters compared to TA muscles. Based on these results, we hypothesize that masticatory muscles may sense and respond to load differently than limb muscles, where the drive for anabolic processes is reduced, and cell stress mediated processes are enhanced. These results establish a novel classification for the masseter muscle in the spectrum of skeletal muscle allotypes, and may provide insight into the molecular basis for specific muscle-related pathologies associated with masticatory muscles.

Description
The establishment of ad/abaxial polarity is a fundamental event in plant development. It is critical for correct polar development of the leaf (the upper portion of the leaf is chloroplast rich and optimized for light capture while the lower portion is optimized for gas exchange) and for creating an environment that allows the formation of new meristems (centers of stem cell growth). Class III homeodomain-leucine zipper (HD-ZIPIII) proteins are conserved plant proteins that act as potent regulators of ad/abaxial polarity. HD-ZIPIII protein activity promotes the development of upper (adaxial) leaf fates and meristem formation; in its absence lower (abaxial) leaf fates develop and meristems fail to form. A network of regulatory factors controls the establishment of ad/abaxial leaf fates. However, this network is incomplete and how these factors control one another is poorly understood. Here we report a new family of plant genes, the LITTLE ZIPPER (ZPR) genes (consisting principally of a stretch of leucine zipper similar to the leucine zipper in HD-ZIPIII proteins) that are transcriptionally up-regulated by HD-ZIPIII activity. Furthermore, we show that the ZPR proteins interact with and repress HD-ZIPIII activity, thus forming a negative feedback loop. Our results suggest that HD-ZIPIII proteins exist in active homodimers and, together with the ZPR proteins, in inactive heterodimers. The newly discovered HD-ZIPIII/ZPR regulatory module would not only serve to dampen the effect of fluctuations in HD-ZIPIII protein levels but more importantly would provide a point of regulation - control over the ratio of inactive heterodimers to active homodimers - that could be influenced by other components of the pathway. For instance, the binding of a small hydrophobic molecule to the conserved (yet little understood) START domain present in the HD-ZIPIII proteins may influence the type of dimer formed.

Description
Tumor suppressor p53 promotes differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), but an in-depth understanding of mechanism is lacking. Here, we define p53 functions in hESCs by genome wide profiling of p53 chromatin interactions and intersection with gene expression during early differentiation and in response to DNA damage. During differentiation, p53 targets and regulates a unique collection of genes, many of which encode transcription factors and developmental regulators with chromatin structure poised by OCT4 and NANOG and marked by repressive H3K27me3 in pluripotent hESCs. In contrast, genes associated with cell migration and motility are bound by p53 specifically after DNA damage. Surveillance functions of p53 in regulation of cell death and cell cycle genes are conserved during both DNA damage and differentiation. Our findings expand the registry of p53 -regulated genes in hESCs and define specific functions of p53 in opposing pluripotency, which are highly distinct from stress-induced p53 response in stem cells.
